DASP
(Diversified Agricultural Support Project)

DGVS has played a significant role in implementing the Uttar Pradesh Diversified Agricultural Support Project, which focuses on improving agricultural productivity, strengthening rural infrastructure, and promoting private sector participation in agriculture.

The project emphasizes a bottom-up approach through district-level planning (SREP), ensuring that farmers’ real needs are addressed. DGVS has facilitated:

  • Technology dissemination and modern farming practices
  • Credit linkage and financial support for small & marginal farmers
  • Capacity building and farmer mobilization
  • Value addition and agri-business development

Key Achievements:

  • Formation of 350+ Self Help Groups (SHGs) with bank linkage
  • Creation of Farmer Federations
  • Promotion of crop diversification
  • Special success in summer groundnut cultivation

The initiative has helped farmers convert unproductive land into fertile agricultural fields, leading to improved income, better crop yield, and enhanced food security.

Bhoomi Sudhar
(Land Development & Soil Improvement)

This project focuses on restoring land fertility and improving agricultural productivity in degraded areas. DGVS has worked with farmers to educate them about soil health, water management, and sustainable land use practices.

Key Interventions:

  • Soil reclamation and fertility improvement
  • Water management and drainage systems
  • Awareness on hybrid seeds and improved techniques
  • Promotion of environmentally sustainable farming

Ravine Stabilization Program

The Bundelkhand region faces severe challenges due to ravines, soil erosion, and low moisture levels. DGVS implemented this program in 13 villages of Kurara Block (Hamirpur district) to address these issues through community participation.

Key Activities:

  • Construction of water harvesting structures & check dams
  • Soil conservation techniques like contour bunding & gully plugging
  • Fodder plantation to increase biomass
  • Farmer training through FFS and community mobilization

This program has significantly improved land usability, reduced soil erosion, and increased agricultural productivity in affected regions.
